The hits are still bangers, but all-in-all more subdued than I remember. It did strike up nostalgia. I remember seeing them at Lollapalooza 2010 with my girlfriend (now wife). Great memories. Glad to revisit for those memories.

This was my first favorite Beatles album. It comes out of the gate with a bang - SPLHCB is such a shot to the veins. Great album top to bottom. Love it.
There were some great moments — the intro and following track most notably. Some felt a bit too theatrical for my taste, but a good album overall. 3 stars.
Great album. I prefer the live versions on Stop Making Sense and The Name of This Band…, but this is stacked with hits.
Solid

Fun album with great energy.
Not really my thing but a good album nonetheless.
Not my thing but I understand how this is an important album.
Some really beautiful moments but not all in my wheelhouse. The first track is incredible.
Lagrange is a banger

Nice album with a lot of different sounds.
Hadn’t heard of this artist before but not a bad album.
Hard to believe all those classic tracks on one album.
Not really for me.
Record slaps today. I bet it had peoples heads spinning when it was released.
Not for me.
Wonderful
As I have aged, this one hasn’t aged quite as well with me. I would’ve 5-starred it in my late teens/early 20s. 3 now.
Forgot how good Lynyrd Skynyrd is. This album kicks ass.
Very of its time
Great debut.
Good album but too long.
Good listen but forgettable afterwards.
Masterpiece
Pretty damn good.
Great late period album by a legendary songwriter.
Give me all the Talking Heads.
The hits standout. Good start for a legendary band.
I can understand the esteem, but not really my thing for a full album hang.
The hits stand out, but not as good as I remember it being when it came out.

Very Jason Molina coded. Loved those tracks.
I was a bigger fan at a time, but doesn’t quite carry the weight for me as it once did.
No notes. So great.
Not for me.
Funky, jazzy, protesty…what’s not to love?
This album rips. I knew nothing about it, but it was on a heater from start to finish. Great find from this list.
Really solid album but a bit boring on this listen.
It’s not bad, but not one I’ll revisit.
This album is so forgettable. The best song is Heaven and that owes all the credit to David Byrne and The TH because it’s a banger no matter who sings it. I listened to this less than 24 hrs ago and all but that song is wiped from my memory MIB style. Could’ve saved 45 min of my life by never hearing this one.
I had much more fun listening to this than I expected.
Fun, nostalgic listen. Held up better than I expected.
Enjoyable hip hop album but too long. Would’ve preferred some restraint at 45 minutes max.
All killer, no filler. I want to live in this album. Raw, grimy, sexy, raunchy - love it.
Saw him years ago at Beale Street Music Festival in Memphis and he was old and didn’t have the piss and vinegar he had here. Hell of a live album.
The hits are great but some of the other songs are a bit forgettable. 3 1/2
This went down much better on this listen than it did for me when it first came out. I understand the hype that it received now.
Not my favorite Morrissey that has been on here but still a solid album. 3 1/2
I get the importance of MC5 but not one I will revisit. 2 1/2 rounded up to 3.
So far, my favorite metal album that has been on the list so far.
Not an enjoyable listening experience for me.
Not a fan.
Never really listened to this one when it came out, but what a banger.
This one grew on me as I listened. 3 1/2
Terrible listen. Not sure why it is included on this list.
Solid album - 3 1/2
I like it, but this was a bit too much of it. 3 to 3 1/2.
Breezy listen. Long but never felt too long. Enjoyed the vibes.
I don’t hear anything that merited this being heralded as required listening before one dies. Not unlistenable, but not necessarily enjoyable. Could have skipped it and slept just fine for the rest of my days.
